Default Flickering Headlight

Hi all
At the moment I am experiencing a problem with my right hand headlight going on and off with headlight switch on. Vehicle is a 2014 GC diesel. Have checked wires behind headlight for good connection and the same with the appropriate fuse. They appear to be normal.
I am leaning towards the actual headlight switch being defective. Has any one experienced this problem and if so what caused it.
Regards
Peter

If it was the head light switch wouldn't both of the lead lights do it. Could be the globe

Swap the globes side to side, I'm assuming the globes are the same.
See if the problem moves.

Looks like your globe is stuffed. Need a new HID D3S globe.

Thanks for the replies.
Yes it was the globe that was at fault.
